@Madmac96 День назад

Just being "qualified" doesn't mean you're the best person for the job. In my city, the fire department went from scoring the written and physical tests, to a "pass/fail" system. Not enough women and minorities were getting good enough scores on the tests. So, now you can get the very minimum score possible (with a little inside push) and still get hired because you "passed" the tests. That of course means all of the people who scored at the top might not get hired because they are White males. This is, by law, illegal. Yet it is an open policy all across our country.

Goals are objectives.

They are not synonyms. Words matter.
